public class PropertiesConverter extends java.lang.Object implements Converter
Special converter for java.util.Properties that stores properties in a more compact form than java.util.Map.Because all entries of a Properties instance are Strings, a single element is used for each property with two attributes; one for key and one for value.
Additionally, default properties are also serialized, if they are present or if a SecurityManager is set, and it has permissions for SecurityManager.checkPackageAccess, SecurityManager.checkMemberAccess(this, EnumSet.MEMBER) and ReflectPermission("suppressAccessChecks").
